Tim, All,
Looking at the git repository under main/dependencies I find both qt3
and
tqt3. The first questions is do we want the build based on tqt3 or qt3?
Both
look fairly identical.
They are identical except for the fact that tqt3 uses TQ* object names
internally, allowing it to be compiled into programs along with Qt4 (this
is still a bit of a work in progress, but the theory is quite sound).
Next, there were a number of standard kde and arch
patches that were
applied
when I was building last year. I am sorting though them to find what has
already
made its way into the code. Does anyone have a list of what patches have
already
been applied to tqt3? For qt3 we were applying the following:
gcc46-arch.diff
qt-3.3.8-buffered-iconview.patch
qt-3.3.8-eyecandy.patch
qt-3.3.8-fix-qtextedit-vulnerability.diff
qt-3.3.8-xinerama.patch
qt-3.3.8-xinerama-qpopupmenu.diff
qt-3.3.8-xmms-dynamic.patch
qt-copy-kde-patches.tar.bz2
qt-odbc.patch
qt-patches.tar.bz2
qt-png14.patch
I will try to pick through these sets of patches and find out what will
and
won't apply any more over the next few days. If this has already been
done, then
please STOP ME, I hate reinventing the wheel. If not I'll go forward. It
seems
that the standard qt-3.3.8-xxxxx patches should have been committed to the
tqt3
source, but that is what I need to discover.
I am not familiar with non-Debian patches to Qt3, but I strongly suspect
the png and any other compilation fixes are already applied to GIT. If
you find useful patches that have not been applied to Qt3 already, please
let us know in a bug report (with the new patches attached).
Thanks!
Tim
